The Christmas Boxby Wetzel, JoAnne StewartFirst Edition
Book description: New York: Alfred a Knopf Inc, 1992. First Edition. Hard Cover. As New/Near Fine. Root, Barry. This is a story that will resonate with many families this Christmas. Drawing on the author's memories from her own 1950s childhood, this warm, simply told story creates a portrait of a family separated by distance but held together by love. Can Christmas be the same without Daddy? He's a soldier in faraway Japan this year, so his two young children and their mother prepare for the holiday as they've always done, except that they mail Daddy's presents to him in Japan. Then they receive a large wooden box, marked "Do Not Open Until Christmas." And while a wooden box can't take Daddy's place, it holds its own promise for an unforgettable Christmas. 29 pages, fully illustrated in color. The jacket front has a vertical wrinkle in it, and is a bit wrinkled at the top spine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
